- simfree 3y agoBattery cycles, number of cycles that dipped below 20%, State of Health, how many cells are out of balance and by how much (this stat is what causes full pack rebuilds) and total kWh charged and discharged. It's fairly easy to plug in a Bluetooth OBD2 reader, open up AlfaOBD and see how damaged (or undamaged) a car's battery is.
